The Kingfisher | Pet Friendly Lakefront Luxury with 150+ ft of Private Beach - 4 Bedroom, 3.5 Bathroom

Ideal for groups of friends or larger families traveling with kiddos and pups, this spacious waterfront cabin accommodates up to 12 guests and offers an expansive 150+ ft of private beach area with sandy shores on a sizable protected cove. Inside the home, you’ll find a gas fireplace in the living room, two laundry rooms, four bedrooms, and a dedicated bunkroom. Both the upper and lower levels have a primary king bedroom, while the latter has a queen bedroom, a bedroom with two twin beds, and an additional space with four youth bunk beds. There are three full baths and two half baths as well as a dedicated mudroom downstairs with an adjacent outdoor shower. Outside, you’ll find a newly-installed luxury hot tub, fire pit area with seating for 4, a screened porch with a gas logs fireplace, a Weber gas grill, and professional landscaping. In the morning, sip your coffee on the cozy screened porch while listening to the birds singing and the wind rustling the trees. After coffee, follow the trail down to the private beach area to soak up the sun, swim, kayak, and boat to your heart’s content. On those inevitably rainy days or lazy afternoons, gather around the gas logs fireplace in the living room to read that book you’ve been meaning to, or stream a binge-worthy show before taking advantage of the gas grill and dreamy gourmet kitchen. Listen to your favorite playlist as you create a delectable lunch of Tuscan salad topped with grilled fish, fresh veggies, and tangy lemon vinaigrette for you and your family to enjoy together al fresco on the deck overlooking the lush woodlands and gorgeous lake. In the evening, relax in the rocking chairs below the porch to watch the sunset before gathering around the outdoor fire pit to enjoy a glass of wine and look on in awe as the stars and moon emerge in the clear night sky. Located just 45 minutes from Asheville in Nebo, NC, this stunning lakefront home is the perfect place to retreat and enjoy everything the Lake James area has to offer. Spend your days enjoying nearby hiking trails like the Fonta Flora Loop in Lake James State Park or High Shoal Falls in South Mountains State Park before grabbing a refreshing craft beer at Fonta Flora’s open-air brewery at Whipporwill Farm or a flagship pour from WNC staple, Catawba Brewing Company. Less than 10 minutes away, you’ll find the quaint small town of Marion where you can grab another cold one at Mica Town Brewing Company, fresh seafood and a cocktail at Crabby Abby’s Bar and Grille, or a handcrafted dish paired with the NC staple, Cheerwine, at McDowell Local. Before returning to your home away from home, shop around at the Lake James Antique Mall, or take a short 20-minute drive to the “Simply Charming” town of Morganton where you can find gift shops, regional museums, and art galleries to pick up a souvenir to remind you of your time in the mountains. Boasting the same regal blue-gray exterior as the belted Kingfisher of its namesake, this dazzling mountain home nestled alongside the pristine waters of Lake James provides unparalleled luxury and tranquility to ensure an extravagant and exciting lake vacation year-round! The Kingfisher on Lake James also offers lightning-fast wireless connectivity with a 1000 Mbps wireless internet package for all of your internet streaming needs.
